Lighted Holiday Letters for LPSIA

The City of Lubbock is requesting quotes for a lighted holiday sign for Lubbock Preston-Smith International Airport, with quotes due September 28, 2026. The sign consists of 14 LED letters spelling "MERRY CHRISTMAS" in bold block style, each 3–4 feet in height, arranged in two rows with a stable, freestanding, stackable support structure designed for breakdown and storage. Letters must feature red LED lighting with static (non-animated) illumination powered by standard wall outlets. The display will be installed indoors along a long wall next to the TSA entrance and requires no weather resistance.

The vendor must deliver the complete display by October 1, 2026, with assembly, installation, and removal performed by airport staff rather than vendor personnel. The vendor shall provide detailed assembly and installation instructions with diagrams or photographs, identify all tools and equipment airport staff will need, and supply warranty information covering letters, lighting, and support structure. Recommended maintenance guidance, LED replacement policy, and expected lighting lifespan must be included. Frame material, letter depth and thickness, brightness and lumen output, and support system design are open to vendor recommendations, indicating flexibility on technical approach provided functional requirements are met.

The scope includes an optional pricing element for a custom star based on the airport's logo, though this feature is not required. Storage capability and an optional storage container are desired features. The specifications document does not identify a contract value, incumbent, estimated term, or evaluation criteria weighting. No site visit, pre-bid meeting, or question deadline is specified.
